Jurkat T cells have been of central importance for the discovery of signalling mediators driving NF-κB activation in response to T cell antigen receptor (TCR)/CD28 co-stimulation. The critical function of the key regulators identified in Jurkat T cells has subsequently been verified in primary murine and human T cells. CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genomic editing techniques in combination with viral reconstitution are powerful tools that now enable the investigation of the exact molecular mechanisms that govern T cell signalling, especially the impact of protein-protein interactions, protein modifications, or cancer-associated gain- or loss-of-function mutations. As exemplified by the CARD11 gene encoding a key regulator of NF-κB signalling in T cells, we describe here the detailed workflow for the generation of CRISPR/Cas9 knockout (KO) Jurkat T cells and the subsequent reconstitution using a lentiviral transduction protocol. In addition, we explain the use of a stable NF-κB-dependent EGFP reporter system that enables a reliable quantification of NF-κB transcriptional activation in the reconstituted KO Jurkat T cells.
